New Delhi, April 27: Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha has officially joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) after leaving the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). This decision has sparked numerous questions, with some offering congratulations and others seeking clarity on his motivations. To address these inquiries, Chadha posted a video on his Instagram account on Monday.
In the video, Chadha shared that he has been inundated with messages over the past three days. While many have sent their best wishes, others are curious about the reasons behind his significant decision. He created this video for those who may have missed his press conference.
Chadha revealed that before entering politics, he was a practicing chartered accountant with a promising career ahead. However, he chose to leave that path to pursue a political career. As a founding member of AAP, he dedicated 15 years of his life to the party, nurturing it with hard work and commitment. Yet, he feels that AAP is no longer the same.
He described the current atmosphere within the party as toxic, stating that members are discouraged from working and speaking in Parliament. He believes that the party has fallen into the hands of corrupt individuals who prioritize personal gain over national interests.
Chadha expressed that for several years, he felt out of place. “Perhaps I am the right person, but in the wrong party,” he said. Faced with three options—leaving politics entirely, trying to reform AAP from within, or channeling his energy and experience into a new platform—he chose the latter. Importantly, he did not make this decision alone; seven MPs collectively decided to sever ties with AAP. “One person can be wrong, two can be wrong, but seven cannot be,” he asserted.
He pointed out that many educated and sensible individuals who once shared AAP’s vision have also left. “Could they all be wrong?” he questioned.
Chadha likened his experience to that of employees in a toxic workplace, where hard work is stifled and voices are silenced. “What would you do? Obviously, you would leave,” he noted. He emphasized that he has done just that.
He concluded by stating, “I will now raise your issues with even more enthusiasm and energy. The good news is that we will also find solutions and implement them.”
